The incident took place in the grounds of Haddo House in Aberdeenshire this afternoon. Police are hunting a man who exposed himself while carrying a camera in the grounds of a National Trust for Scotland country mansion. On Wednesday, August 13 at around 1.15pm, a man was spotted exposing himself in the grounds of a Haddo House in Methlick near Ellon. Haddo House, designed in 1732, is one of Scotland's grandest Palladian-style country mansions, which was built for entertaining - regularly playing host to royalty and dignitaries across the centuries. The man, who was carrying a camera, is described as being white, in his 50s, of heavy build, with grey receding hair and wearing a black t-shirt. Police Scotland have increased patrols in the area as they carry out extensive enquiries. Sergeant Josh Kinnaird is appealing for witnesses to come forward. He said: 'We are appealing to anyone who may have witnessed this man to contact us. "Officers will be in the area of Haddo House and anyone with concerns or information can approach these officers.

It brings the total number of punters arrested as Oasis' Scotland gigs to six. Three people were arrested during the first show on Friday. But fans were on their best behaviour on Saturday with officers not having to put a single reveller in handcuffs. A Police Scotland spokesperson said: 'There were three arrests at an event at Murrayfield Stadium on Tuesday, 12 August, 2025. 'A 42-year-old man was arrested and charged in connection with assault.

'A 39-year-old man was arrested in connection with threatening and abusive behaviour. He was issued a recorded police warning.' Last night also saw a number of youths try to get into the gig without tickets. A number of louts got into back gardens next to Murrayfield and scaled the walls. Others pushed over barriers in an attempt to get in. But their daft efforts proved futile after they were all ejected by cops and security guards. Oasis will now head to Dublin for two dates on August 16 and 17.
